Blind Date (also known as Your Big Moment) is an American television game show which aired on ABC, NBC, and then DuMont after many years on radio. Format #1 Six men vied for dates with three unseen women by having conversations with them, in a show similar to the future The Dating Game. The men, who were typically either servicemen or college students, were known as the "Hunters" and tried to win a date with the women, known as the "Hunted," for an expense-paid date on the town, which included an invitation to a popular local nightclub. Radio Version In this version, the six men (initially local servicemen) sat on one side of a wall, and the three women sat on the other side. Two men each would have about two minutes to explain by telephone their best points to one woman. After they both had their turn, the woman chose the date she found more interesting, with the winners escorted through swinging doors to meet their blind dates. Winners received a night on the town, which on the premiere episode included a nightclub invitation to the Stork Club, $5 in pocket money, and a chaperoned ride home. The losers received a friendly kiss from Francis, $15 in cash, and tickets to a popular local theater production as consolation prizes. And the women were each paid $50 for their appearances. The radio show began its network run as a summer replacement for the Maxwell House Coffee Time program, and it was fairly risqué for its time. The Billboard review for the first show concluded with, "All in all, it's a lot of fun and if program could be broadcast 'for adults only' it'd be a great filler inner for Snooks and Frank Morgan. Since broadcasting is a family medium it doesn't belong on the air." Television Version In this version, two men (college students or servicemen) were seated on one side of a wall and telephoned one of the women sitting on the other side. They attempted to talk her into accepting a date with one of them. On the basis of voice and specially prepared questions, she chose the most impressive one of the two for her affections. Those two people became a couple. This process continued until three couples were formed. At the end of the show, the audience determined which couple would receive the romantic night on
